NHTSA Complaint #11506655 — 2017 CHEVROLET EQUINOX

Rear Main engine seal failure due to blocked PCV system on 2.4 Liter DOHC. There is no GM maintenance schedule that informs the vehicle owner that this need regular maintenance in cold climate exposure. A 2015 GM Technical Service Bulletin, TSP 14882 refers to excess water/oil in PCV and a 2019 GM Diagnostic Bulletin, TIP 19-NA-021 refer to oil leak from rear of engine in exposure to cols weather. This is an obvious GM known issue with the PCV system that they have done nothing about and cost the vehicle owner a large repair bill. Mine was around $3900. No guarantee after the repair that this will remedy the situation from occurring again.
